Heuristic-seeded NSGA-IIA+D · meets all 17 benchmark constraints. Brief B0043
Plan drawing of a courtyard on a 19.9 by 25.6 metre lot, 2 storeys, 4 dwellings, 25 rooms. Dwelling U0 (1BR) has 5 rooms totalling 71 square metres. Dwelling U1 (2BR) has 6 rooms totalling 68 square metres. Dwelling U2 (2BR) has 6 rooms totalling 71 square metres. Dwelling U3 (2BR) has 6 rooms totalling 68 square metres. Building footprint 190 square metres; open space 326 square metres. This design satisfies every benchmark hard constraint. Objective scores, higher is better: density 0.72, daylight 0.62, privacy 0.74, circulation 0.53, carbon 0.76, cost 0.59.
